This dashboard provides an overview of the Cycle Time based on Jira or Trello issues. It leverages the "time in column" feature to report the duration of each stage of the product development development flow.
It provides key metrics to understand the company’s ability to deliver new product capabilities or support customers (in case issues are related to a customer support project). The dashboard lets managers and team leaders quickly identify unusual durations across the delivery pipe and gives them a historical view for each stage.
The general recommendation is to keep each stage as short as possible to maintain a proper development and delivery flow.
This dashboard (and each insight) can be narrowed down to a given company, team, or project.
